Dressmaker Sewing Machine
#11
I had a White Dressmaker that was very similar to the Brother machines made around the same time. (1970). You might be able to check on the White manufacturing company and come up with some info.

No, not yet. I will get a picture posted and let you see it. It is very pretty. It's like a chocolate pudding color, yum! lol. It is a very pretty brown color like milk chocolate. I'll have to get my daughter to stop by and take a pic of it for me so it might take a few days.

Never could figure out what she was trying to say? LOL

If the tensioner is on the front face plate of your machine, I think you probably have a Japanese clone of a Singer Model 15....You are LUCKY!! They were actually made better than the Singer model 15, and a lot of people think that is one of the best machines Singer ever made.
You can drop the feed dogs by a little mechanism under the front of the machine so you can free motion quilting on this machine. Get yourself a Singer 15 manual (for free) off the internet, and it will also be accurate for the one you have.
